Humanity had always been a potential threat to the rest of the galaxy. Every time an attempt was made to stamp them out, the despicable humans came back stronger and more numerous than the last time.
The Galactic Alliance took notice of mankind’s existence from early on—as was their duty—and kept an eye on them. They watched from afar, as mankind evolved from primates with slightly higher intelligence to Neanderthals to modern day man.

This foolishness was their downfall. By the time the war was over, the humans had fully colonized all habitable planets around them and begun to explore space travel. They were researching methods to split space and time in an effort to colonize distant galaxies. This time, their advancement in technology was unimpeded as other galactic issues swamped the Alliance—the war had left the Alliance’s forces in shambles and they were struggling to recover their once vibrant societies. The Alliance decided to put rebuilding at the forefront of their priorities and blatantly decided to ignore proof of how far the humans had advanced.
